Facebook users show 4-year-old boy that wearing glasses is awesome

Noah Fisher was devastated when he found out he needed to start wearing glasses. The 4-year-old burst into tears and told his mom that his friends would make fun of him.

Noah’s mom, Lindsay Fisher, shared her son’s anguish on her personal Facebook page and friends started posting images of themselves sporting cool frames. One friend nudged Lindsay to create a Facebook page where people across the Internet could share their spectacle pictures and show Noah how awesome they look.

The mom took her friend’s advice and the page titled Glasses for Noah was born. The page caught on more quickly than she ever imagined and it now has over 66,000 fans. The page is filled with people from all walks of life showing Noah how beautiful they look in their glasses. There’s a photo of a man in glasses holding an alligator. There’s a kid in mouse ears at Disneyland wearing glasses. A 13-year-old playing drums in a rock band and wearing glasses. There are lots of photos of cats, dogs and babies in glasses.

The page is full of wit and humor. There’s a woman wearing a measuring cup on her head and glasses and she posted the message, “The jug on my head is funny. The glasses are not.

People from all over the world pitched in. A woman and her cat in Hungary. A girl standing atop a snowy mountain in Switzerland. A man all the way in Qatar. “Glasses are cool dude,” Al Gharafah posted.

The popularity of the page exploded this week and Noah became an Internet celebrity. The Today Showfeatured a segment with him and his parents. Happily sporting his specs, Noah shared that an image of the Hulk in glasses was his favorite.
